Practical AI training for Austin teams.
SAUG is Brian Bruner. Hands-on workshops, half-day team training, and monthly retainers for small and mid-sized teams who want AI their people can actually use.
Most AI training teaches features. Yours should teach the work.
AI tools are easy to buy and hard to use. Teams sign up for ChatGPT, run a few prompts, and quietly go back to the old way of working. SAUG closes the gap between “we have a license” and “we use it every day.”
- Your team has ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini licenses but the work hasn't changed.
- One person figured out a workflow and nobody else knows it.
- You've watched the tutorials but still can't picture how AI fits your actual job.
That’s what SAUG fixes. Pick the tier that matches where you are.
A working AI system, not a cheat sheet.
Three pieces, built around your team. Together they turn ad-hoc AI use into a system your team actually keeps using.
Connectors
Plug AI into your tools (Gmail, your CRM, your calendar) so it works on your real data, not screenshots and copy-paste.
Skills
Named workflows your team invokes by phrase. “Draft the client kickoff.” “Summarize this thread.” “Write the weekly recap.”
MD files
Short documents your AI reads at the start of every session, so it always knows who you are, how you write, and what’s in scope.
Free Chamber Workshop
Your members leave with workflows they can use Monday morning. Host provides the room. SAUG brings everything else.
Training
Your team uses AI on real work, not curiosity prompts. Built around your stack with Connectors, Skills, and MD files that last.
Monthly Retainer
Training without reinforcement decays. The retainer keeps your team sharp — one working session a month plus async support.
The first one's on the record.
Additional client references available on request as engagements complete.
“Our members left with tools they could use Monday morning. Brian delivered. The Q&A could have run another hour.”
Honest pricing. Pick where you are.
Ballparks are published so the first call can skip the calendar dance. Final scopes are written, fixed, and signed before work starts.
